Reading your patch shows that GC_MARK_STACK will still not be set for
GNU/Hurd. However, the previous comment by Stefan Monnier says that
GC_MAKE_GCPROS_NOOPS should be set as the default. So what is wrong
with patching gnu.h??
Anyway, which are the differences/consequences of that part of the code
in which_symbols being executed compared to not when GC_MARK_STACK is
unset or set to GC_MAKE_GCPROS_NOOPS?
